Garlic Shrimp and Vegetable Stir-Fry

Method

1. 1

   Whisk the soy sauce, honey, cornstarch and 3 tbsp water together in a small bowl to make the sauce.

2. 2

   Heat half the oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat and sear the shrimp 1–2 minutes per side until just pink. Remove to a plate.

3. 3

   Add the remaining oil, then the broccoli, bell pepper and carrot, and stir-fry 4 minutes until crisp-tender.

   💡 Keep the heat high and the vegetables moving — a crowded, cool pan steams instead of sears.

4. 4

   Push the vegetables to the side, add the garlic and ginger to the cleared space, and stir 30 seconds until fragrant.

5. 5

   Return the shrimp to the pan, pour in the sauce, and toss everything together until glossy and slightly thickened, about 1 minute.

6. 6

   Serve immediately over rice while the vegetables still have bite.
